[IRCA] TP for 19 Oct 2013 from Victoria: Not too shabby

[Walter Salmaniw <canswl@xxxxxxxxx>]

As others have posted, reception wasn't too shabby this morning, in
Victoria, BC.  What was most impressive, was the staying power of several
stations well past 8:00 AM local, including VOA on 1575 and 972 HLCA.  I
didn't think the first tier JJ stations were particularly strong this
morning.  It was nice to hear a lot of audio, and not just from the lower
half of the band.  SF was a surprising 140, A (12:00) 3, and K of 1.  I'll
adopt a similar rating scale to Nick and Bruce to make comparisons more
simple:

Pretty good audio:  VOA Thailand 1575 at 14:12, and still pretty good at
14:40,
774:  JOUB, the best of the JJ NHK2 stations, although 828 JOBB was pretty
decent too.
594:  JOAK
567:  JOIK
890 (not TP, but interesting):  CJDC Dawson Creek, BC with ID at 14:00
"Just a stone's throw away from the Mile 0 marker"
930:  KTKN Ketchikan, pounding in.
945:  CNRI at 14:32
972:  HLCA:  really strong, and continuing well past 08:00 AM local
1287:  JOHR at 14:19
1323:  CRI in Russian at 14:11
1575:  VOA just kept going and going.

Not so reasonable audio:
558 with time pips at 14:00
747:  JOIB
891:  ?JOHK at 14:03
963:  CRI in Russian
1017:  CRI at 14:00, and better at 14:29
1566:  HLAZ

Burbles in the splatter:
819, 864, 936, 1269

73 to all!   Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC
